Who do you have on your "Boycotted Businesses" list?

Ticketmaster for me. I will try every possible way to avoid using them and getting charged service charges to print tickets on my own printer.


Who do you got?
 
Not one. I think most of us have a tendency to "boycott" companies that we perceive as having wronged us as opposed to due to some higher moral ground. I just haven't had those kinds of experiences that would push me away from a company to the point I would call it a "boycott". I tried a burger place here in Reno that was highly recommended and it ended up being dry, not very tasty, and heavily over-priced. I am not going to go back of my own accord, but I would not say I have boycotted them. If my friend went there and brought back burgers for our game night or whatever I would eat them and have no real problems with it. I think of boycott as something a little stronger than just not using their service anymore.
 
To go along with my dislike for car dealerships, I've pretty much boycotted everything else The Miller Family owns.

Depends. I boycott the company that I do because my clients may be paying them for ridiculously inferior service at 10x the price, only because they don't know better. And the reason I moved to the boycott was because they are completely incompetent, and a place like that doesn't deserve to be in business. They're the definition of "we'll take complete advantage of people that have limited knowledge, bend em over, then not give a **** when they have a problem with our service, because we aren't doing anything to fix the situation".

+8 on that one big fella.

I 100000% will never purchase another NIKE product, ever. EVER. I try to avoid McDonalds like herpes, but my wife still tells my kids they can have Happy Meals, so I get stuck going.

That's about it. If I get crappy service at a resturaunt or crappy food, I won't go back. I absolutely don't get the, 'In and Out' burger craze -- that stuff tastes like freshly blended ***.

That one blows me away. While I don't boycott it, I don't go there. Tried it once in Cali, thought to myself "WTF is this? Garbage?" and now I don't go there.
